Thye D E P crew attempted to band the Eagle chick in Seymour this morning.
The climber, Geoff, got part way up the Tulip Tree to the nest , which was about 100 feet high, and decided that the tree was too rotten to continue his attempt. Because safety is of the utmost concern, he came back down.
There was at least one chick present, but there will be no more attempts at this nest site.
The nest will still be monitored for future information.
